According to him, the importances of liberal arts are:
- teach learners about their history, their social condition, themselves.
- Expose learners to orientation on philosophy, history, language, literature, music and arts
- Too much information today is piling up
The order is based on where the conjunction of information in the society currently exist, because now many media exist and spouting many different informations that serve their own agenda.
